Poets have a special place in my heart. I believe they belong to a different planet 🙂 . Their perspective on life and the way they mix and match words and phrases ,to express their feelings, always amazes me . I always had this wish of writing one too.

Here is my first attempt at writing a poem 🙂 . This may not even qualify as poetry , but there is always a beginning isn’t it …so here it is 🙂

 

Shower forgiveness , a great Medicine for your Soul              
             and be Rich in Peace. 

Help the less privileged , 
             be Rich with Blessings that you would receive.

Be Compassionate and Understanding , 
            and get Rich with the realization of Oneness of all beings.

Share your knowledge , a sure way to be Immortal
            and become Rich with all the Respect you will be receiving.

Accept people as they are,
            and become Rich with Empathy.

Introspect more often , rather than complain ,
            become Rich in ethics, values and morals.

Love yourself fiercely, as you cannot serve from an empty bowl,     
            and get Rich in serving mankind. 

Take only the good in others , ignore the bad,
            be Rich in being good to all. 

Do not suffocate those you Love, set them free,
            in turn be Rich with freedom , the Oxygen for your Soul.

Be full of Gratitude ,  great for your health ,
            and be the Richest one in the world.
